At EMI, we offer advanced CNC machining services because we know that sometimes this is a better option for specific applications. Our experienced craftsmen team works carefully to match our technology with your design needs and material requirements from beginning to end.
We’d like to introduce you to the new manufacturing powerhouse…
Elemet Manufacturing.
Precision Waterjet Concepts (of Pequot Lakes, Minnesota) and Aitkin Iron Works (of Aitkin, Minnesota) have combined forces to create industrial synergy for your manufacturing needs. United, they bring new meaning to the word precision.
As the newly-formed Elemet Manufacturing based in Aitkin, Minnesota, they’ll continue to provide the best in CNC machining, CNC milling, turning, threading, 5-axis waterjet cutting, welding, painting, and other complementary services.
Precision Waterjet Concepts (PWC) was founded in 2002. The company founders saw a need for quality abrasive waterjet cutting in many industries and started the company to meet that demand. PWC handled intricate, complex cuts on virtually any material for any industry. Their craftsmen manufactured parts with exceptional edge and structural quality on their 5-axis waterjet systems.
Aitkin Iron Works (AIW) was founded in 1935 and served the farming, logging, and mining industries. AIW has always provided the best service in small- to large-size machining on their horizontal and vertical machining centers. They also offered welding, fabricating, assembly, and inspection services.
Our experienced craftsmen work carefully to match our technology with your design needs and material requirements from beginning to end. You can rely on our machining processes to meet the highest-quality and most efficient standards. We take efficiency to the next level. Our machining center can handle tapping, drilling, countersinking, and other operations - all in one shop.
With our 3D, 5-axis waterjet systems, there’s practically no limit to cutting heat-resistant, extra dense, or delicate materials. This cutting method produces clean edges with little secondary clean-up, elimination of heat-affected zones, minimal tool radius, and very low tolerances. The production of waste is significantly reduced as well.
We focus on creating strong, dependable bonds for quality parts. Our welding capabilities make it simple to meld your parts onsite, creating strengthened joints that will hold fast in your application. Rather than investing in welding machinery or paying the extra cost to have the parts welded in another facility, complete the process right here!
CNC milling, or computer numerical control milling, is a specialized machining process that employs computerized controls and rotating multipoint cutting tools to progressively remove material from the workpiece and produce a custom-designed part or product. Our milling team takes the time to make sure your custom designs come out exactly to your specifications.

Turning is another specialized form of machining, a material removal process. Turning creates rotational parts by cutting away unwanted material in small pieces. The turning process utilizes a lathe or turning machine, a workpiece, a fixture, and a cutting tool. This method of machining produces cylindrical shapes.

Thread cutting on the lathe, or lathe threading, is a process that produces a helical ridge of uniform section on the workpiece. This cutting is performed by taking successive cuts with a threading toolbit similar in shape to the thread form required.

To finish up any manufacturing pieces, our professionals can also apply paint in virtually any color to make your custom designs pop!
